Beneath a dying tree, a man digs a grave, awaiting another arrival. When a silent figure appears, he assumes they've come to bury someone else. But as the truth unfolds, he realises the grave is his own. What follows is not a fight for survival, but a quiet confrontation between fate and free will, between beings that exist beyond human understanding. What begins as a simple encounter unfolds into something far more metaphysical: a conversation between two beings that exist beyond the realm of men. One bound by duty, the other corrupted by desire, both caught in a moment between life and eternity. Set in a desaturated rural landscape, Sakarat: Pohon Yang Sunyi reimagines the moment before death where silence, duty, and rebellion intertwine, blurring the boundaries between the mortal and the divine.

Wordless visual piece on the cyclical nature of life, a quiet balance between presence and departure.
